How to use

Set up the game on a flat surface and distribute any player aids or markers according to the rule booklet.

After resolving actions, update scores and pass play to the next participant. Continue through the programmed number of rounds or until the end-condition defined in the rules is reached, then compare scores to determine the winner.

Usage recommendations

For best results, play on a stable surface with enough space for player components. Allow brief rule explanations for new participants and consider using a mediator or scorekeeper in larger groups to keep rounds flowing. Store dice and small parts in separate containers to avoid loss between sessions.
